The options expand the measurement capabilities of the MS2712E/MS2713E and MT8212E/MT8213E, and provide users with the broadest portfolio of digital broadcast measurements for ISDB-T and DVB-T/H available in handheld instruments. The BER measurements, together with the other digital video and SFN measurement options, help ensure digital TV transmitters are configured according to license agreements and optimized for error-free reception over the entire coverage area.

Anritsu has made other enhancements for DVB-T/H testing applications. The frequency tuning ranges on the MS2712E/MS2713E Spectrum Master and MT8212E/MT8213E Cell Master models have been extended to 2.4 GHz. A frequency map for automatic channel selection from VHF channels 5-12 has also been added, for European testing environments.

In addition, the MS2712E/MS2713E provide excellent flexibility for locating, identifying, recording, and solving communication system problems without sacrificing measurement accuracy. Each analyzer has dedicated routines for simple one-button measurements of field strength, channel power, occupied bandwidth, adjacent channel power ratio (ACPR), carrier-to-interference ratio (C/I), and AM/FM/SSB demodulator. With advanced marker and limit line capabilities, the flexibility and power is available to meet all types of field measurement needs.

The MT8212E/MT8213E handheld multi-function base station analyzers are the smallest, lightest, and most economical solutions for installing, troubleshooting, and maintaining transmitters and cell sites. The Cell Master family combines the functionality and capabilities of a cable and antenna analyzer, spectrum analyzer, interference analyzer, signal analyzers, backhaul analyzer, and a power meter into one instrument, making it the most full-featured compact base station analyzer on the market.

The ISDB-T and DVB-T/H options are available now.
